"Wu … … Wu … …"
Yi Xin let out a muffled cry and struggled desperately, but the black figure suddenly leaned over and whispered something in her ear. Yi Xin's body suddenly stiffened, and then she stopped struggling. She calmed down, only her eyes in the darkness still revealed a trace of horror.
The hand covering her mouth slowly withdrew, and the black figure still sat on the edge of her bed. A pair of bright eyes appeared in the darkness, and then his appearance was gradually seen clearly. It was Lu Chen.
"Brother Lu … …" Yi Xin softly called out, and after the shock in her eyes, there was finally some joy. She did not know why, but she suddenly felt sour in her eyes, and after a moment, two lines of tears silently flowed down from her pale face.
The tears streaked across her white and tender skin, and the bandaged wound on one side of her face was still not removed, making her look particularly miserable. Lu Chen quietly looked at the girl sitting in the darkness crying silently, sighed, and then reached out to wipe away the tears on her face, and said:
"Don't cry, you did well."
Yi Xin stared at him in a daze, her lips slightly trembling, and the scenes of these days flashed through her mind. Suddenly, she realized that so many people from the same sect, so many relatives, and even her parents, seemed to be separated from them by a layer. In these few days, she desperately suppressed her fear, endured her nervousness, and only at this time, in this dark and quiet night, in front of this man who seemed to be one with the darkness like a shadow, did she suddenly feel a trace of relief.
He knew all the secrets, and there was no need to pretend anything in front of him. Yi Xin just looked at him like this, and unknowingly, tears flowed down her face again, and even her voice trembled and choked:
"Lu, Brother Lu … … I'm so scared … …"
Lu Chen raised his hand, as if he wanted to comfort Yi Xin, but when he just raised his hand, he suddenly felt a warm body jumping into his arms, tightly hugging his arm, desperately suppressing her trembling voice and crying: "I'm so scared, Brother Lu, at that time I was so scared, I was in so much pain … … I've never been in so much pain in my life! I saw myself bleeding so much, my whole body was covered in blood, I, I, I even cut my own face, from now on I am an ugly person … Sob sob, sob sob sob sob … "
Lu Chen's hands froze in the air, for a moment he did not know whether to raise or let go, and could only let Yi Xin vent in his arms. After a while, he found that Yi Xin did not seem to show signs of calming down, so he could only gently pat the girl's shoulder and whispered: "Okay, it's okay, it's all over … …"
Perhaps his comfort had some effect, Yi Xin's crying slowly quieted down. After a while, she slowly left Lu Chen's body, lowered her head and sat on the bed again, but kept using her hand to wipe the tears on her face.
A hand held a handkerchief and handed it to her.
Yi Xin hesitated for a moment, took it, and while wiping her face, she whispered: "Thank you."
… …
"Well, this is the final result of the matter." The room was still dark. In the darkness, Lu Chen and Yi Xin sat on the same bed, somewhat strangely and somewhat inexplicably ambiguous. Separated by some distance, they listened to Lu Chen talk about what happened these days. Finally, as if coming to a conclusion, Lu Chen said:
"If nothing unexpected happens, He Yi will be grounded for a very long time in Closed Door Meditation, and He Gang is currently recuperating in Kunwu City, but it will be very difficult for him to return to the Kunlun Party. Perhaps he will be expelled from the sect."
Yi Xin's breathing seemed to quicken in the darkness for a while, and then with a hint of disbelief, she said: "Really?"
"Really."
Yi Xin was silent for a moment, and then she let out a long breath, as if a big stone that had been pressing on her heart for a long time had finally been moved. After a while, she sighed softly: "Our Kunlun Party still has its justice. But this time, because of me, they actually alarmed so many seniors and elders, really …"
Before she finished speaking, Yi Xin suddenly saw Lu Chen, who was next to her, turn his head to look at her. A pair of bright but deep eyes stared at her. For some reason, Yi Xin suddenly felt weak in her heart, and her voice involuntarily dropped. After a moment, she stammered: "I, did I say something wrong?"
Lu Chen looked at her with a faint smile and said: "Do you really think that Baicao Tang and Heavenly Soldier Hall made such a big movement just for you?"
Yi Xin was stunned. After a while, she said with a stutter: "Didn't I?"
"In the beginning, of course it was for you. That day when you came out of the forest, the scene was bloody and tragic. No one could stand it. So, including your Martial Uncle Melaleuca Japonica, she angrily made a move because she couldn't help you."
"But what kind of influential family is the Kunlun Party? There are so many masters and recluses in Baicao Tang. How could they rashly fall out with such an important hall like Heavenly Soldier Hall for the sake of you, an insignificant new disciple? Before, even you didn't dare to believe that it would be like this, right? "
Yi Xin silently nodded and said: "Then why on earth, Brother Lu?"
Lu Chen smiled and said: "Because there are still people who don't like the He brothers."
"Who?"
"Just like you, a disciple of a sect from an aristocratic family in Kunwu City."
Yi Xin was startled and said with some doubt: "That can't be. Although my family is also one of the aristocratic families in Kunwu City, to be honest, our Yi family has been very ordinary these years. We haven't produced any particularly outstanding talents, and the other aristocratic families rarely pay attention to us."
Lu Chen said indifferently: "It has nothing to do with this. It's just that all the people from aristocratic families have different circumstances since childhood, so they naturally more or less have a sense of superiority. When some people see you, won't they think of something else? What if the person that He Gang likes is a girl from another aristocratic family? Aristocratic families have confidence, strength, and influence, so they naturally aren't afraid. But what about those small and medium-sized aristocratic families? Do they deserve to be bullied by this rising young man? Taking a step back, even if they are aristocratic families now, what if they become like the Yi family in a few decades or hundreds of years? At that time, what will their daughters do when they meet this kind of person? "
He sat quietly in the darkness and looked at the injured girl. He was calm and even faintly cold as he said: "So the key to this matter lies in the place where it happened. If you were bullied by He Gang in the Land of Chaos, or even worse than today, the Kunlun Party's reaction wouldn't be as big. But this time, it happened in the Kunlun Party and under the eyes of all the Kunlun disciples. This is a slap in the face, a slap in the face of the several hundred aristocratic families in Kunwu City. It would be strange if they didn't kill the He brothers. "
Yi Xin stared blankly at Lu Chen who was sitting in the shadows. Looking at his deep eyes that were faintly discernible in the darkness, she suddenly said softly,
She suddenly said softly: "Brother Lu …"
"Hm?"
"When you first helped me think of the idea, did you already think of everything that would happen later?"
